Diary Day 9
Thanks for all the positive messages - have discovered auditors have a positive side line - i get so busy making sure everything is ok etc am not bothered by food at all - and am so tired at night am still not bothered ...... managed all 4 packs though (if i had choice i could have not bothered with the 4th)
Water - ummmm need to check am drinking enough - not sure i am (though my work colleagues smile at my coffee requests at brew time (without the milk and coffee)) may have to start measuring .........
All in all though - all seems well - hope everybody else doing ok
Until next time ...

Diary day 13 (totally ran out of time to get on days 11 & 12)
Been soooooooooooo busy - but that is good cause am not thinking about food or dieting etc - (its at times like these i would be picking some junk food up for meals - too busy or too tired to sort something healthy & low cal) so am going to need to think this aspect through at some time in the future - ummmm .....
Today i stuggled a bit during shopping - looking at all the lovely things to eat and especially the new items out for xmas ........... :cry: - but hey one day in moderation - but only purchased newspaper and broccoli !!!!!! (mothers trolley is a different story all-together)
Other news item is my temperature - am soooooooooooooooooooooo cold !!!!! and my fingers are like icicles !!!!! not yet resorted to gloves inside yet though ! (though have purchased more pairs of socks in the week)
Until next time all ..............

Diary Day 16 (whoops 14 & 15)
Been keeping busy xmas shopping - more distraction techniques .....
But weighed myself at Boots yesterday and -3 !!! - thats over 1/2 stone in 2 weeks - just need to keep this up (need to update ticker)
Once weather gets better gonna start the walking - see have said it now - so will have to do it !! - i used to walk quite a lot when doing LL and loved it.
I also feel like getting into a bit of a routine and if not already put it on here - bought the Beck diet book & workbook with a view to these helping me with my food issues - if anybody has read other similar good books please let me know (though have seen at least 1 book thread on here !)

Hope everybody else doing well .......

I think I don't look any thinner but even after a few lbs loss each week clothes that didn't quite fit a few weeks ago fit great now. So the diet does work just got to keep at it

Diary Day 22 (whoops 20 & 21)
Manic weekend - but good.
Saturday - had day out with friends - planned to come off for the day (involved alcohol and non sns food) and had lovely day, and was a good as could be, certainly didnt go overboard as i usually would but proved to myself can have a good day without masses of alcohol and food - result !!!
Sunday - xmas shopping and got straight back on .......
Was nervous today for weigh in (was going to miss and do next week) but thought no - I need to do this - and guess what - not put any on (that was my worst fear !!!) - stayed the same (and even for the Boots machine i am going to each week, i have grown again ! (see previous thread re the weigh machine knocked inches off me!)) - so yeah !
So can carry on again on plan - two events in the 2 weeks between now and xmas day (when i am again coming off plan) - but am doing protein (and allowed veg) only at these events - so hopefully will have no effect .....
until next time

Felt a bit rough yesterday and today - poss coming down with a cold (Grrrrrrrrr - never get ill, this could be annoying!) must remember vitamin tablet each day.
I am soooooo cold - usually means am in ketosis but is it just the weather ????? but honestly cant feel my hands !!!!!!!
However plodding on - got some microwave steam bags now - so am going to take veg to work with me and steam in the microwave and have with meal - i am finding it easy to keep busy after work and at home and have warm drinks (hot water with the orange and lemon flavourings) so other than watching every food programme i possibly can i dont get any food thoughts .................
Hope everybody ok

Ummmmm not a good day at work today - horrendous even.
But am v proud of myself - had no plans for this evening so normally i would have thought food and alcohol = make me better after feeling sorry for myelf, prob got a takeaway on way home or picked up some junk food from supermarket and comfort ate until i felt ill - but NO - i came straight home, steamed piece of salmon, courgette and some leeks - followed by hazelnut mousse (had chilli and dark chocolate coconut bar at lunch) -
I CAN do this (the diet and sort my head out!) !!!!!!! - and must read this again next time i feel like this ..............
Until tomorrow .....
